T's & P's to Marcus Paige

Which top player from Iowa went to Nova?

None of those kids decided to go to Iowa either, just like Paige. So he shouldn't be rooting for them either. That is my point. Not every kid grows up being a Hawk fan, no matter if they are an in-state kid or out of state. I think I've actually heard that Paige grew up a North Carolina fan.
 
Caring about Iowa kids that leave Iowa to play elsewhere is like ass kissing the girl that TD'd you for prom when you see her at your 30 HS reunion.

Piss on Marcus Paige and every other Iowa kid that spurned Iowa.
 
This. How can you hate a kid just because he picked a blue blood over an Iowa team that was relatively mediocre?
Yes. Plus we hadn't really reached mediocrity yet when he made his decision in 2011-2012.
 
and yet w/o him IA recorded the 3rd best 4 year record by 4 year starters in over 100 years of IA BB., not to mention 4 straight post season appearances, going to the NIT Championship and 2 straight 1st round wins,,

plus if Weiskamp stays in ESPN Top 20 he will be Fran's 1st McDonalds AA, not bad for a White IA kid.
 
That kid has some SERIOUS hang time! On multiple occasions on contested shots he hung and contorted, etc. He played one hell of a game. Glad Carolina lost, that's for certain, but Paige was a warrior.

That shot he made to tie it would have been shown for the next 50 years had they won, as it is it will be shown plenty in years to come. That was some CLUTCH stuff from young Mr. Paige. Well done young man, but still glad your team got beat.
The kid and his team lost a ball game, very important one to be sure, and a person feels sorry for him, but T's and P's is a phrase that should be used for tragedies or serious injuries and the like.
